Clashes erupted Sunday between Palestinian security forces and a group of Hebron University students, who suffered bruises and cuts.| There were unconfirmed reports of a hangnail, but no additional information was available at press time. |
Hamas accused the security forces of attacking the conference organizers, who belonged to the student council affiliated with Hamas. The conference was to announce developments in talks with the university's administration over tuition fees, it said. The university administration said, however, that the students sought political gain by holding the press conference, which was why they were prevented from holding it on campus.
